Default Terrible service July 9th

Came in and sat at the very busy bar at 4:15pm. After 10 min we were asked what we needed. We ordered a beer and food. The beer came right away. After a 30 min further wait we flagged down one of the bar tenders and asked about the food order of wings. He looked and said they did not have an order for food even though we order drinks and food at same time. He said he could put in the order. We so no thank you we were tired of waiting and paid the bill and left. Will not be back

This is why we will not go to a newly open restaurant until it is open for awhile.

So, if everyone did what you do, all new restaurants would close. Just saying.

And you know what they say - If you don't ask, you don't get.

But sometimes, even when you ask...and ask nicely I might add...

Would you go if they did? If not, what's your point?

No, they wouldn't. They just wouldn't have their inexperienced staff overwhelmed in the first week. Once the kinks are worked out, I'm sure thing will flow more smoothly.

As for all the haters, the market will decide if it was a good location or not for this type of venture.
